For nearly thirty years ESOTERIC have been pushing the limits of sonic intensity. From the mind-bending darkness of their 90’s double albums to the expansive epics found on their recent opuses, they have never compromised their initial aim; to unleash aural mayhem on unsuspecting listeners. Late 2019 sees the release of their most accomplished work to date, ‘A Pyrrhic Existence’. It is 98 minuts of new material, detailed and layered compositions and a high level of musicianship, foreboding production, and equal measures of utter darkness and melodic diversity.

UK doom cult ESOTERIC quickly gained a following after they formed in 1992. The band invented a new musical formula that consists of psychedelic elements mixed with classical doom death metal, a path that no other band in the genre dared to walk before. ESOTERIC's sixth record ‘Paragon of Dissonance’ is another crushing monument in the band's celebrated discography. This new 2-CD edition is fully remastered by Greg Chandler at Priory Recording Studios (FEN, WODENSTHRONE, MOURNING BELOVETH). Get ready for a sonic ride through the heart of Doom!

Swirling colours, deep drones and psychedelic moments: ESOTERIC will touch your mind, alter your state of consciousness and make you aware of the esoteric essence of space and time. When this English band formed in July 1992 as a gathering of five individuals, they were inspired to create dark, innovative music that was evocative to and expressive of the contents of their psyche. Their lyrics, music and sounds are reflections and transpositions of their thoughts, philosophies, emotions and experiences. Their music captures the essence and true meaning behind the word 'esoteric'. With this long awaited new double CD, “The Maniacal Vale”, the collective further expands on their slow psychedelic journey into crushing atmospheres. Bow your heads to this masterpiece of extreme doom.
Extreme doom metal, great album
